Dayne Brajkovich stabs Perth: Police storm Hells Angels home after infamous ex-Bicycle member slit his throat at packed concert in attempted 'gangland hit'
Police have stormed the homes of Hells Angels bikie members following the brutal stabbing of their former enforcer Dayne Brajkovich.
Brajkovich, 44, was rushed to hospital about 9.50pm on Friday night after his throat was slit as festival goers left Ministry of Sound Classic at Kings Parks in Perth's CBD.
The infamous tattoo-covered bikie was a former sergeant-at-arms with the Hells Angels before being expelled from the club in 2022 following a dispute with senior leaders.
Detectives confirmed they were investigating whether the knife attack was an act of revenge by his former club.
Police revealed coordinated raids were carried out in Perth suburbs on Saturday evening, resulting in the arrest of five people.
At about 5:20 p.m., officers burst through the home in Kinross and arrested a 46-year-old Hells Angels prospect in the driveway.

It is alleged that police found a loaded firearm and several rounds of ammunition hidden in a couch at the home.
Various amounts of cocaine, methylamphetamine, steroids and prescription drugs were also allegedly found on the property.
Police have released the bodycam footage of the dramatic raid, which shows officers forcing their way into Kinross' home.
Officers from the Tactical Response Group, wearing protective headgear and body armor, can be heard shouting as they break down the door of the suburban home.
The 46-year-old was due to appear in court on Sunday, charged with not having a license or permission to possess a firearm, possession of a defaced firearm, possession of cocaine, dexamphetamine and methylamphetamine.
The Gang Crime Squad, Rapid Apprehension Squad, Drugs and Firearms Squad, Regional Operations Group and Tactical Response Group also executed co-ordinated arrest warrants in Como, Greenmount, Scarborough and Osborne Park.
Three motorcycles were seized during the operation.
On Saturday, the officer in charge of gang crime detectives, Anthony Thompson, appealed for witnesses to the brawl outside the Ministry of Sound concert to come forward.

Brajkovich was taken to hospital with a critical wound to his neck after the shocking incident, which police called a 'targeted attack'.
'At this stage we believe the incident is the result of an internal gang issue between the Hells Angels and a former member.
“The parties involved are known to each other and the possibility that this incident is the result of a retaliation issue is certainly an avenue we are investigating.”
Brajkovich said he “asked for it” in an interview with the Sunday Times.
'I asked for it, I got it. That's the game,” he told the outlet.
Brajkovich, who has served just one prison term for selling MDMA, claims he has left the motorcycle and drug trades behind and concentrated on his properties.
He owns at least three houses in the Perth area.
Brajkovich is a regular in WA newspapers and gained notoriety for beating up Rebels boss Nick Martin weeks before he was killed at Perth Motorplex in 2020.
He previously told The West Australian that when he left the Hells Angels club, he confronted the then president in the clubhouse on Friday evening.

'I didn't have anyone else, so I took (wife) Jacinta with me. She would follow me anywhere,” he said.
He added that he also brought along his “favorite homemade steel brass knuckles to see if they still worked.”
“To be fair, he (the gang president) had a broken leg and was on crutches, but he always bragged about being ex-military and ex-SAS.”
The pair fought with Brajkovich saying he drove a crutch into the man's broken leg for good measure and he walked out as a member.
He also made headlines when he walked into the Perth Mint in June 2022 and bought $27,000 worth of gold bullion.
Despite the Mint requiring in-depth background checks on customers deemed “high-risk,” Brajkovich's attorney said all he had to do was show his driver's license.
